I still don't get why anyone would pay to play online. Plus the added ability to watch blue ray and better graphics. The choice was easy for me. Now I dont play very much but the PS3 is used often for Netflix and blue ray

For me Xbox offers a more variety of games and buying live isnt really too expensive. If you buy a 12 month membership its $60, thats $5 a month.

Think of it like this... TV is free, but often we find ourselves paying a premium for it via Netflix, Direct TV, UVerse, Fios etc etc all to just further enhance whats available to watch at any given time. Isnt netflix like $8-$10 a month? Plus your cable bill $70-100?

There is a few reasons actually. The Xbox servers are more secure from hacking, cheaters and not as much lag. The Xbox servers are also constantly updated with less downtime. Free servers, well you get what you get. Lol
